Is a laser die cutting machine the same equipment as a laser cutting machine?

Is a laser die cutting machine the same equipment as a laser cutting machine? As the name suggests, laser die cutting machine is a kind of precision laser cutting equipment that replaces traditional die cutting. The application of laser cutting equipment is very extensive. Generally, the application of laser cutting machine is divided according to the power of the laser, which allows us to understand the laser cutting machine very easily. Generally, high-power laser cutting equipment is required to cut metal. From the point of view of the laser medium of the laser light source, there are carbon dioxide, ultraviolet, optical fiber, YAG, etc.

Laser cutting machine is a modern cutting and processing equipment. It is a modern processing equipment that utilizes lightweight materials to melt and separate materials at high temperatures.

The cutting effect and cutting requirements of laser cutting machines vary according to the requirements of different industries. Some industries require high-speed cutting, and some industries require high-speed cutting and smooth cutting blades. The industry requires vertical cut sections without slopes, etc. Each industry has different requirements for laser cutting, so slowly began to subdivide users in different industries to buy laser cutting machines with different functions, and then subdivide them into special laser cutting for different industries.

Self-adhesive laser die cutting

We have been engaged in the laser cutting mold industry for many years, and have transformed from a mold cutting equipment user to a laser cutting mold equipment manufacturer. So far, we have a certain understanding of the laser cutting machines required for the laser cutting mold industry.

First, laser stamping is a type of die cutting for printed molds, electronics, toys, plastic absorbers, and other products to obtain many final products that are consistent with the design files. The earliest dies were handmade. Use the drama bed to cut the knife on the plank, then install the knife. About 15 years ago, there was a laser knife slit in China, and then a knife was installed, and the laser knife mold began. So far, the laser die has been popularized, and the manual die will be eliminated and withdraw from the historical stage.

The laser knife die industry is mainly used for cutting multi-layer wood plywood, generally using 15-layer wood plywood (or PVC plywood, plexiglass, steel plate and other materials) for plane cutting. After cutting out a tailor that is consistent with the design file pattern, the board tailor (commonly known as industry knife sewing) needs the most basic requirements.

  1. The cutting joint must be vertical

If the cutting joint is not vertical, the steel knife line is not vertical after installation. If it is not vertical, the formed dimensions of the tool after installation will not match the dimensions of the device pattern, which is known in the industry. The mold failed due to too large tolerances. In addition, the cutting joint is not vertical, and the cutting line is not vertical after installation. When the die is cut and compressed, the cutting line is deformed by vertical pressure, and the curl is damaged. The better the verticality, the better the precision and durability of the mold.

  1. The width of the cutting seam of the cutting knife must be the same

Due to the international standard thickness of steel cutting lines, the cutting seam must have a certain width, and the width of the cutting seam cannot be too narrow or too wide, because the loaded cutting line has the same thickness. If it’s too wide, the cut line won’t hold. If it is too narrow, it will be difficult to install the cutting line. Forced loading can be very laborious, causing the sheet to squeeze horizontally. The final dimensions of the bare board and the board also vary.

Including the front and back slits, the slits should be the same width. If the upper and lower widths of the upper fruit are not suitable, the plate will be bent and deformed after the tangent installation, and the final mold size will be deformed. The mold is scrapped.

  1. Accurate cutting size

When the above two aspects may reach the standard, it is the problem of cutting dimensional accuracy, which involves the motion accuracy, coordinate positioning accuracy and repeated positioning accuracy of the machine tool. At present, the mold cutting industry has higher and higher requirements on the precision and size of laser molds. The allowable error of general printing mold is 0, 15-0, 2mm, and the allowable error of printed matter and blister mold is 0, 1-0, printing knife mold, leather knife mold is made of plexiglass plate, only the allowable error is not more than 0 , 1mm. The electronic knife model is relatively high, and the error is generally required to be around 0, so the accuracy requirements of the machine tool cannot be vague.

Label Laser Die Cutting

The above three basic requirements are the main requirements of the mold industry for laser cutting machines. These three requirements are relatively independent and related. Under the premise of ensuring the accuracy of the machine tool, the inconsistent width of the cutting seam will lead to low final accuracy, and the non-vertical cutting seam will also lead to low accuracy. However, if the longitudinal cutting seam and the width of the cutting seam are well controlled, if the machine tool is not accurate, it will eventually lead to unqualified molds, or only some unnecessary molds can be made. Die dies do not need a common feature, which is a large supply. Because there are many people, the price must be very low (low requirements, naturally low prices).

Therefore, the laser cutting machine required by the mold industry has its unique requirements. Not only cut the board, but also the width of the joint. The joint width should be consistent, the joint should be vertical, and the machine tool accuracy should not be blurred. It can be said that the requirements of laser die cutting machine in the laser cutting machine application industry are very high. So not all laser cutters can cut knife dies, or just kidding: not all laser cutters are called laser die cutters.
